The verb "appeler" means "to call", with the same meanings you could find in English: to call someone or something (to use his name so as the person you are talking to knows who or what you are speaking about), or to give him a telephone call.

S'appeler with an additional pronoun can have the same two meanings.

Either this is the reflective form of the verb. This is likely to be what you are looking for. Here are the examples for the present tense :

je m'appelle ... (I am called ...= my name is) - tu t'appelles ... (you are called ...= your name is) - il/elle s'appelle (he/she is called...) - nous nous appelons (we are called...), vous vous appelez (you - plural - are called ...) ils/elles s'appellent (they are called...).

The other possibility refers to the "telephone" sense of to call. Ex: "il faut qu'on s'appelle" (we need to phone each other).

"Appeler" is a regular verb that means "to call" or "to name" someone or something. "S'appeler" is a reflexive verb that means "to be named" or "to call oneself" in reference to someone's own name. The reflexive pronoun "se" in "s'appeler" reflects the action back onto the subject.
